Re: errors on CIXCD device
Call HP or your locally-preferred hardware service organization. You've probably lost a CI cable (those do get damaged fairly easily, either through degradation or bending or getting stepped on or kinked or disconnected), or you could have a problem with the CIXCD or with the SC008 Star Coupler.
Those two errors and the pairing there tends to indicate somebody might be working within the CI hardware, too.
And the usual recommendations apply here, too: patch to current, and move from V7.1-1H1 to V7.1-2 with current patches, or move to a supported release. There are a number of patches for OpenVMS V7.1-* releases.

Re: errors on CIXCD device
I will call Hp now. and I will update you the status.
Also, how to check the status of the connectivity being restored in this case.
Thanks again,
Joe

Is that an HSJ sitting out on the CI? Is it behaving?

Re: errors on CIXCD device
The CI errors observed on the 8400 may been a reaction to the HSJ issue. Those errors were logged at 8:11 - is that when the HSJ misbehaved?

Re: errors on CIXCD device
(I would not hold out hope that the firmware is the issue here, however.)
If the CI cabling or a CI host or a CI storage controller goes wonky, all bets are off. And anything within or along CI path zero anywhere in the star could be involved here.

Re: errors on CIXCD device
This is out of my curiosity.
But, now the controllers are fine and all the disks are available to the system and there is no problem with the system.
Will the problem still be there or could the problem be restored? something like the cable might be disturbed and then its been fixed by mistake or something like that.
How to make sure that everything is fine. What am i supposed to check to make sure every thing is fine.

Re: errors on CIXCD device
In terms of the hardware, an rx2600 box will run rings around this AlphaServer 8400 box. In 3U of rack. With up to 24 GB of memory. Add 3U or 6U of rack if you need more than the near-terabyte of disk storage of memory that can be stuffed into the base 3U box.
And yes, getting the software ported from OpenVMS Alpha V7.1-1H1 to OpenVMS I64 V8.3-1H1 will involve some work.
Moving to a newer AlphaServer would involve less work in porting over the software. And a 3U-class AlphaServer box would still easily outrun this AlphaServer 8400 box.
Otherwise, ask HP services when they arrive; they'll hopefully have a better idea of why your HSJ is tipping over and why your CI is throwing faults. They'll have a far better picture of the configuration than we do.
